This song is talking about a man/woman who has found something (religion, perhaps) to believe in. All of his old friends and people he meets for the first time continually try to change him to their way of thinking "they're tryin to shoot down my plane of grace." Meanwhile, he's beginning to get weary of the trappings of "the one less traveled" and is starting to feel pressure to be like them. But he believes that people should be allowed to be who they are: "strange is just a different point of view."
